from Pessimistic at Best · host Samantha Georgson / Ashley Krueger
Why is it that when you work in a creative field, you’re so often expected to do it all? Ashley and I can certainly attest to this, as we’ve both taken turns playing the role of social media manager, graphic designer, marketing director, copywriter—you name it, we’ve done it—and we probably weren’t paid fairly for it either. Oh, and don’t even get us started on freelancing. In this episode, we bitch about the tricky business of being a “creative,” our ever-growing Zoom fatigue, and the things that have been keeping us busy outside of our 9-5s, including a trip to D.C., a hard to recreate mocktail recipe and the debacle over the shrimp in that one guy’s box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch.Get silly with us on social:FOLLOW THE PODCASTInstagram: @pessimisticatbestWebsite: pessimisticatbest.comFOLLOW SAMANTHAInstagram: @samgeorgsonTwitter: @samgeorgsonLinkedIn: Samantha GeorgsonWebsite: samanthageorgson.comFOLLOW ASHLEYInstagram: @akruegerdesignLinkedIn: Ashley KruegerSupport the showTHERE'S MORE WHERE THAT CAME FROM: FOLLOW THE PODCASTInstagram: @pessimisticatbesFacebook: @pessimisticatbestWebsite: pessimisticatbest.comFOLLOW SAMInstagram: @samgeorgsonTikTok: @samgeorgsonTwitter: @samgeorgsonYouTube: @samgeorgsonWebsite: samanthageorgson.com
